As
«The annual Dallas
Junior High School Spring
Chorus Concert. was held
récently. The chorus,
rumbering over 70 girls,
performed songs from the
Broadway musical, ‘The
Sound of Music,” as well
as traditional and popular
songs.
f
with ‘several traditional
nimbers, the chorus sang
two up-beat tunes,
“Gonna Rise Up Singing”
amd ‘“Rock-A-Ma-Soul.”
These were followed by
two popular songs, Paul
Simon’s ~~ ‘““Sound of
Silence” and Besig’s “A
Better World”. Soloists of
the evening included
Elizabeth Morgan singing
‘““Tomorrow’’ from
Broadway’s ‘‘Annie’”’, “I
Need To Be In Love”, a
popular song by Karen
Carpenter, sung by Lori
Falcone, and Marvin
Hamlisch’s “The Way We
Were’’ done by Judy
Fitch.
Other popular songs
sung by the chorus were
“Happy Days’’, the theme
song from the popular
television show, ‘‘Mor-
ning - Train,” “Nine to
Five,” and ‘‘Freebird,”
all top-forty songs.
Musical selections from
the “Sound of Music”
featured an overture per-
formed on the piano,
electric piano, organ,
guitar, and xylophone as
well as a duet by Christina
Williames. Soloists for the
songs from this musical
included Liz Morgan
singing the title song,
“Sound of Music,” Beth
Adams singing ‘‘Sixteen,
Going on Seventeen,’
Leslie Billman doing,
“These Are a Few Of My
Favorite Things,”” and
Kathleen McKeown
singing ‘‘Climb Every
Mountain’’. The girls,
accompanied by Michele
Lamoreax, Kathleen
McKeown, and Terrell
Smith, performed very
well, considering the
difficulty of some of the
popular songs. However,
it was the soloists who
made the night.
Outstanding perfor-
mances by ninth-graders
Liz Morgan, a soprano,
and Judy Fitch, an alto,
added much to the overall
effect of the chorus as
well as giving great solo
performances. The two
girls have been combining
their vocal talents in
duets over the past three
years at the Junior High
School. Both girls have
powerful voices which
have. helped to make the
chorus strong. Director
Marie Lewis will cer-
tainly miss these two girls
when they graduate to
Florence Sherwood’s
Senior High Chorus next
year.
